Plating Shops in Texas

[pacbrakeman]

I'm looking to get my 47 Packard bumpers and hubcaps plated. Has anyone used the services of Superior Plating Houston, or Advance Chrome Fort Worth or can you recommend a plater that does good work on large and small items for a fair price? Thanks

I'm confused, If you are in Illinois, Why do you want to ship your parts down here to Texas? Surely there are plating shops up there? The place I use here in Dallas is 'Quality Bumper Service', 214-824-7300.

I have used Hanlon in Richmond-None of the platers are cheap but Hanlon was better than most. All you do is take the bumper to UPS-no box- and ship it. Cost to ship was about $30.

I live in southern Illinois. The only close shop is Brown's plating in Paducah,Ky and they only do motorcycle parts. Has anybody used the two platers mentioned in my previous post? Sometimes it's ok to be confused!

I've heard of Advanced Chrome. They are a very large operation but I've never had anything done there, Sorry. For me, getting Plating done is sort of like buying a T-bone Steak, you don't want to do it Long-distance. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

There are some plating shops up here in the Chicago Land Area that are good. One place is called THE FINISHING TOUCH they do high end work, another place is near the United Center that my friend and I have used to plate bumpers and some engine parts their quality of work was good for the price.
